DESIGN A PEDESTRIANBRIDGE
BY
LEW MUN HOONG
ABSTRACT
My project is to design a pedestrian walkway bridge that will connect two buildings. The body of the bridge composed of four T-beams and two rectangular columns. The length of the bridge is 16m long whereas the width of the bridge is 2.8m long. Rectangular columns, which placed at the middle of the bridge, support the bridge. The rectangular columns are 6.3m tall. Below the bridge, it must have a clearance in two sides to give the vehicles cross along the road.
The concept of the bridge is designed as two simply supported beams. Small gap is at the middle to separate the two simply supported beams. Two rectangular columns support all the four T-beams.
A small gap is designed to separate two simply supported beams. This small gap is supply to the beams for thermal expansion. There will be pin connections for columns and roller connections for supporting wall.
The idea of my design is obtained from INTI constructions. After process the calculation, the construction of the bridge is completed. More details and analyze will be present in my actual report.

DESIGN A SINGLE – STOREY BUNGALOW
BY
HO YIEW SHYEN
ABSTRACT
I’m designing a single-storey bungalow, which is consisting of three bedrooms, two bath rooms, living room, dining room and car porch.
On this page, I will explain briefly the procedure taken to design a bungalow. Firstly, I started to prepare an architecture plan and R.C plan. The R.C plan is important to let us putting a beams and column. By a well prepared of the plans can gives a very good arrangement of design structure due to saving a lot of works and time.
Then I started to design a slab, beam, column and lastly the foundation design. These are the main task of designing the elements.
By completed a design work following a well planning procedures, then the project can be done successfully.

DESIGN OF A SINGLE STOREY CAFETERIA
BY
PANG KAH SENG
ABSTRACT
This project is totally regarding to the structural design of a cafeteria. The structure of my building design mainly illustrate the load transferring from roof which has been design a flat roof (slab) through the beam, then distributed and carried to the column and finally to the footing. The designing procedure is as follow, (1). Designing an architecture plan (2). RC plan design (3) roof design (4) slab design (5) beam design (6) column design (7) foundation design.

DESIGN A STEELBRIDGE LINKING MULTI-PURPOSE HALL WITH ACADEMIC BLOCK
BY
WONG KONG MUN
ABSTRACT
The purpose of this report is to show to design a steel bridge linking multi-purpose hall with academic block to the new limit state code BS 5950. This report covers the design of elements and joints in steel construction to the simple design methods.
My design steel bridge is a girder type steel bridge. A girder type bridges only for short, medium spans which up to 50m and generally provide the most economic solution. The aim of structural design is to produce a safe and economical structure that fulfils its required purpose. Theoretical knowledge of design principles and theory and the constraints given in the standard to give a safe design.
My main design is to design the beam, follow by column, foundation and design of connections. Beam are the most fundamental type of member present in civil engineering structure. Their principle is to transmit the vertical load. The column in a structure carry the loads from the beams and slab down to the foundation. The column base transmit axial load, horizontal load and moment from the steel column to the concrete foundation. I will is bolting and welding to make my design the connection of flange plate which welded between the reinforced concrete slab and universal beam interface. Shear connector also my part of design, it transfer the shear at steel and concrete and control the slit between the two parts.
